What's our source? This post says that the last speaker died in 2013: https://www.reddit.com/r/linguistics/comments/1t5l5m/an_amazing_woman_ha...

(of course it's Reddit, so probably not reliable per se, but worth double checking)

Editorial Action

We will update the information on the number of speakers of the Southern Tsimshian dialect of Tsimshian [tsi], which is now 0 (zero), the last speaker having died in 2013, to be included in the next edition of the Ethnologue.
